burnt out

The summer of wild flowers is done and only a few heads remain, splashes of colour in the field-edge strip.

Now it's the turn of the autumn sunrise to shine bright.

Storm Amy has raged by but the temperature is still 16C so not many autumn colours in the trees yet.

rattling along

 27th September 25, Shilbottle, 8:30am

One of my favourite things living here is the 30 min blast rattling downhill to the beach.  Then a healthy climb back up.

Back home after being away.  Nice to be reunited with the dogs and the beach.



26th Sept 25, Shilbottle, 7am

For a while my morning walk will meet the sunrise.

tis the season

 14th September 25, Warkworth, 6:30am

'Tis the start of sunrise season and my body knows it.  I was woken by my own senses at 5:45.  Perfect time to get to the beach for sunrise.

Nice to have the camera with me too. Although the phone does pretty well for me, I'll always prefer a proper camera (even a wee one).  There's a mix of both here.



Coquet Island doing the "floating island" thing in the cold morning air.
